Dwarf Standards and Multiple Runes Not Correct in AB

Ungrim_7 · October 5th, 2006, 04:56 AM

Im new to this forum, so bear with me.

The current AB data file (7th edition) still does not allow units to take more than one rune of determination on their banners. As far as I know, you can take 2 on a runebanner for Hammerers, at least Alessio Cavatore did in his WD article battle report. I've not the technical skill to correct this myself.

Just thought I'd drop a line about it.

ive had alook at the rile book and it does say multible runes have no effect so i think you cannot have two one the same standard?

p46, dwarf armybook, "Multiples of this rune have no further effect" :~)

That's correct. However, you can still put multiples on the standard and since they are one-use only you can use the subsequent ones after the first ones have been used. This is what Alessio was trying to do in the batrep, thus while they don't "stack" per se (as per the rule you quoted above), there is still a benefit to having multiples if you wish to do so.

As a dwarf, I wish we could take multiples like this, but, no.

That is what the entire entry line of "Multiples of this Ruin have no effect" is for when it is used for single use ruins (that and to forbid cheese monkeys from using two at the same time :roll: )

Compare this entry to the one for the Ancestor Ruin (also a single use, morale type ruin).

The AB file is correct in this regard.
